Open beta for Tanki X begins September 15

Developer AlternativaPlatform has announced (via Gamasutra) that the open beta for their upcoming tank-battle title, Tanki X, will begin on September 15.

Any progress you make during the beta will even carry over into the full game after launch, as the developer promised there will be no account resets from this point forward.

Tanki X is a futuristic tank shooter that AlternatvaPlatform claims is “easy to jump into” without being bogged down by statistics or details to memorize. Tanki X has the following features:

Arm your tank with flamethrowers, railguns, shotguns and all sorts of other devastating weapons, all featuring unique mechanics. Blasting your enemies to bits will never get boring.

If your tank is destroyed (and it will happen often), don’t worry! You will respawn within a matter of seconds, right back into the heat of battle. No waiting, no travelling, no downtime.

Turn up the heat with temporary power ups that can be picked up on random locations within the arena.

Unlock upgrades to improve your tank’s parameters and change its appearance. As you play more battles, cooler customizations and more powerful weapons will become available!

Up until now, Tanki X has been in closed beta, but the open beta will also introduce many new features, including new customization options for your tank, new maps and challenges, and an improved matchmaking system.
